Try a recent version?

Version 1.2.0 was released in...  2006, at which time PostgreSQL 8.2 did
not yet exist, let alone 8.3 and 8.4.

The first version of Slony-I that considered PostgreSQL 8.3 to be
supported was version 1.2.10.  And you shouldn't use that when there are
subsequent fixes up to version 1.2.20 released.
